'Thank you so much for sharing your story. It led me to your 'Chemo For Beginners' blog. I start chemo for breast cancer on Thursday and your upbeat, informative blog has made me feel much less scared.' Nikki, via email.

'Everything Happens For A Reason' Empathy Card

'Everything Happens For A Reason' Empathy Card from Emily McDowell.

When a bad thing happens, like cancer or death, the last thing the person going through it wants to hear is "everything happens for a reason." Maybe eventually, with time and distance, this becomes more appropriate. But not immediately.

Giving someone this card lets them know you're in their corner. You might not know what it feels like to be in their shoes, but you know when to be irritated on their behalf. And that will mean a lot.

Handpicked Get Well Gifts

Please note that while I have plenty of personal experience, have performed in-depth research with fellow patients, and have attended a number of seminars and sought advice from my doctors and oncologists, I am not a medical professional and have handpicked gifts based on my experiences alone. All individuals should check before using any essential oils or other new ingredients.
